The COVID Diaries – 109 16th July
We’ve seen John Lewis and Boots close stores, Bella Italia and Café Rouge go into administration and now Pizza Express is set to close up to 75 of its restaurants as part of a rescue plan which could put more than 1,000 jobs at risk.
Founded in 1965 in London’s SoHo district, Pizza Express is a familiar sight on our high streets, with 470 restaurants in the UK and a further 150 outlets internationally. It employs 8,000 people in the UK.
